Product catalog summary
Overview: The MCB MidacoFan is an automated cleaning tool designed for CNC machining centers. It is installed into the tool holder and mounted in the machine spindle, allowing for unattended cleaning between machining cycles. The fan is engineered to remove machined chips and coolant efficiently, making it a valuable addition for both small and large CNC operations.
Specifications: The MidacoFan is available in two sizes, MCB3 and MCB5, with blade lengths of 2.5 inches and 4.5 inches, respectively. The fan operates within a recommended RPM range of 6,000 - 12,000 for MCB3 and 5,000 - 8,000 for MCB5. The blades are made from glass fiber reinforced nylon for durability and abrasion resistance.
Installation and Operation: The fan is mounted into a collet chuck or endmill holder using a 0.75-inch diameter steel shank. It is designed for easy disassembly, allowing quick replacement of fan blades, springs, and hub. The tool holder must be rated for the appropriate RPM, and the fan is programmed similarly to a facemill.
Features: The MidacoFan offers through-spindle coolant and air-blower projection, reducing cleaning cycle time and the number of clean-up passes required. It provides an 8-inch circumference of coverage, ideal for larger beds. The fan is available with a standard or upgraded wider coverage nozzle.
Additional Information: The product is proudly made in the USA by Midaco Corporation, located in Elk Grove Village, IL. For more details, visit their website or contact them via phone or email.
